all, kind.

·Helen Pugosa – is
a very down to earth lady. Jackie’s close friend and also a Year Level Chairman
of third year level.

One
of the parents’ dreams is to see the wedding of their children. I am sure our couple’s parents are equally
excited as them. Let us now recognize these very special people in the hearts
of the newly wed.

Romulo’s parents: Mr and
Mrs. Mario and Milagros Mabansag (cavite)

Jackie’s mother: Mrs.
Lilia Sabucohan (family has become close to me because jackie’s brother in
law is my ninong.. thank you po for the gifts)

ENTRANCE OF THE COUPLE

And now the big moment,
Ladies and Gentleman, our bride and groom Tina and Marco! Doesn’t she look
beautiful? She’s been practicing her bouquet-throwing and hopes to give a good
account of herself when the moment comes. As for the groom, look at him! Machong
macho as always. Ladies and Gentleman, a big hand for Romulo and Jackie. (wide
applause)

Thank you very much…let’s
all be seated now. Truly, this event will be a celebration of love… a feast of
two hearts who vowed to stay forever no matter what… This afternoon’s program
will be quite exciting for we will hear Jackie’s relative playing the band all
throughout. And maybe some Visayan wedding traditions exercised… as well as not
your usual bouquet and garter ceremonies.. which would be more fun and
memorable. Plus the sumptuous meal of Pescadores restaurant is already set.
Aren’t you all excited?

OPENING PRAYER

To
officially start, let us all stand for the opening prayer to be led by Mrs.
Virginia La Torre, TLE teacher from Macario B. Asistio National High School.

Father, you have made the bond of marriage a holy
mystery,

a symbol of Christ's love for his Church.

Hear our prayers for ____ and ____.

With faith in you and in each other they pledge
their love today.

May their lives always bear witness to the reality
of that love.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,

who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,

one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Pictorial
/ Buffet Dinner

Well I
guess the food is now ready and dinner will commence shortly. At this point to
maintain order, I’ll be calling your table number and the people from that
table will be going to the location of the couple for pictorial. Right after
that they can now proceed and line up at the buffet counter to get their
dinner.

(get the
personalities in each table)

We would
like to thank the Operation Manager of Pescadores Restaurant, Sir Ramon for the wonderful accommodation and service
that they are providing us here. The newlyweds would also like to say a special
thank you to _________________ for supervising in the physical arrangement of
our reception.

Habang
nasasatisfy ang ating taste buds sa masasarap na pagkain ng Pescadores. Merong
inihandang slideshow presentation dito where we can see the evolution of Jackie
and Romulo’s love affair. (chika about the love story of Jackie and Romulo)

·AVP – SLIDESHOW

·BAND PLAY –
Coming from a family of musician, let’s delight our ears with the band
acoustics of Jackie’s relatives.

·SONG NUMBER OF
JOHN HENDRICK DAGUIO – BIBLE BEARER: Talent runs in the family, let’s hear a
sample from the kid who bears the bible a while ago in the church. Round of
applause to…

CAKE CUTTING

At this point, I hope every
ones attention is in the couple as they do the cake cutting tradition. Bakit,
may ganitong eksena pag may kasal? Well, ayon sa aking research, the cake
cutting symbolizes the couple's unity, their shared future, and their life
together as one.

DOVE KISSING TRADITION

This time let’s see them
hold those two doves; please take them out of the cage. Then, they will make
those lovely dove kiss each other. PICTURE!!!

White doves are a symbol of
joy, and since a wedding is a joyous occasion, opening the bird's cage so that
they can fly freely, or using photos of doves in the day's decor is definitely
appropriate. Superstition also suggests that couples who see a pair of doves on
their wedding day will have a blessed marriage, which is a wonderful sentiment
for the new couple to keep in mind when starting a new life together.

WINE TOAST

This time, let’s fill our
glasses with any drink that we could get and join the best man, Mauro Mabansag
for the symbolic wine toast.

Before we go on with the
Garter Toss, the groom is to retrieve the garter from his bride. So may we
request Romulo and Jackie to please come center stage and do the garter
retrieval ritual. Thanks guys.

(A chair is brought onstage
for the bride to sit. while groom kneels down at the bride's feet ready to
retrieve the garter)

Ladies
and gentleman the groom will now retrieve the garter from the bride.

(Groom retrieves the garter
from the bride.)

There you have it ladies and
gentlemen; the groom was finally able to retrieve the garter. Let us give him a
big hand.

PUTTING THE GARTER ON THE
LADY’S LEG.

Alright, let’s have the pair
here. Lady, kindly take your seat. Gentleman, you are now going to put the
garter on her legs.

( Higher, higher- then kiss
is requested )

( Pictorial with Couple )
